Jezzine, where waterfalls sing, forests whisper, olives and pines sway, and artisans keep the stories of legends alive.
The Famous Jezzine Waterfall
One of the largest waterfalls in Lebanon (about 70 meters).
It is the symbol of the village.
The “Jezzine Cutlery”
Jezzine is world-renowned for its handcrafted cutlery:
hand-carved handles, painted decorations, and traditional glossy motifs.
This craft dates back to the 18th century.
In the past, offering Jezzine cutlery as a wedding gift symbolized prosperity and hospitality.
Some say the artisans used to sing while they worked, “giving a soul” to the wood.
The Pine Forests
One of Middle East’s Largest Woodlands
The region is surrounded by a beautiful forest of tall stone pines.
Perfect for hiking, fresh air, and sweeping panoramic views.
The elders say that the pines of Jezzine “protect the village like silent guardians.”

Built in the early 20th century, Serhal Castle is one of Jezzine’s most iconic landmarks. Its traditional Lebanese architecture — stone walls, elegant arches, and a red-tiled roof overlooks the lush Jezzine valley, offering a timeless glimpse into the region’s heritage. A must-see for visitors, the castle stands as both a cultural symbol and a beautiful testament to the charm of South Lebanon.
